I can understand PAB throwing around “Marxist” and “communist” as scare words, because when he was a kid those were the scariest things ever. But now the MAGA nitwits like MTG are using it, not knowing a fucking thing about it. I wish they would state what exactly is the most Marxist thing Biden has ever done. It should be easy- in the short time Biden has been in control the whole country has been destroyed somehow.
Here’s my go-to for such situations:
I think Conservatives should stop bandying about words like “Socialism,” “Marxism,” and “Communism” for the same reason that we don’t let children run around waving loaded handguns.
Because of exactly the reasons you gave.
I think they learned what “Marxism” is by watching Monkey Business.

I heard some MAGA asshole on the radio yesterday complaining about the Ukraine/Poland trip. Apparently Biden is a “complete embarrassment” to our country. I can understand, sort of, having policy disagreements with President Biden. But the right wing outrage is turned up to 11, even when there’s nothing there.
Because there’s nothing there. They’ve got to pump themselves up into a frenzy, because nothing Biden is doing is actually worth getting worked up over.
“Uh… CRT, wokeism, spy balloon.”
I also see complaints that “Gen Z wants socialism - didn’t they learn anything from the Soviet Union?”. Largely because the word “socialism” is way more associated with “60-something uncle ranting about why we can’t have universal health care” than “the second S in USSR”.
MTG, in her explanation for the national divorce, brought up the old R fantasy of the left shoving things down her throat 
To be fair, “Gummint” really isn’t that far off from “Gummo.”
If only that would shut her up.
There’s nothing about this tactic. If you call them out on their bullshit they’ll just say people on the left call Republicans and other conservatives “Nazis” and “fascists” all the time so it’s fair game.
Hell, half the time they will accuse a Democrat of being a commie and a fascist - in the same sentence.
Come to think of it, I’ve actually heard them use the term “Antifa fascists” 
What is PAB? Googling…
Planning Accreditation Board?
Percutaneous Aspiration Biopsy?
Polyaspartate Biopolymer?
Progressive Adult Beverage?
Probably none of those, though that last one sounds interesting. Ah, Urban Dictionary to the rescue: it stands for ‘Pussy Assed Bitch’. Love that derogatory term for the last guy, but is the acronym for it that prevalent?
I’m pretty sure it’s his legal name now; it’s in the Congressional Record.
My sister is waaay to the right of me. My brother is a bit to my left.
When my sister wanted to insult my brother’s views, she called him a Socialist. He replied that he was actually more of a Marxist.
Greene is also openly calling for secession, so it’s becoming pretty likely she is in fact a paid Russian stooge.
It will be if I have anything to say about it.
Yeah, it’s all good…coulda made PAB a link or something, all’s I’m saying.
